First, we enjoyed them on buns with mayo and lettuce, and then as leftovers, with rice and a salad. Both meals were good... but I kind of missed the sweet potato fries the second time around.

chicken and herb burgers

adapted from a Real Simple turkey burger recipe

makes 6 small burgers

1 lb ground chicken

1 medium zucchini, grated, squeezed of excess water

1 medium carrot, grated

2 garlic cloves, finely chopped

3/4 teas dried thyme

3/4 teas salt

1/4 teas black pepper

1 large egg

olive oil for frying

In large bowl, combine all ingredients except olive oil. Mix well and form into 6 small patties, or 4 large patties. (I froze a couple patties at this point.) Heat a couple of tablespoons of oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Fry the patties until cooked through (no trace of pink), about 5 minutes per side depending on their thickness. Serve.
